You know when you’ve been Shango’d! An explosive smack in the face from an exuberant circus rock act, with mayhem and madness guaranteed to leave jaws dropped. Boasting an impressive twelve-member strong line up, this rock
band will blow your socks off! Set to deliver a glorious spectacle with large, vivid, and entertaining rock shows, with backing singers and dancers, fire breathing, sponges, bubbles, milk, washing lines, hobby horses, confetti, gorillas, bananas on roller-skates, sexy dancers, erotic thrusting, orgasmic music, hard rocking out and soft rocking in.
Resplendent with punchy powerful riffs; reminiscent of Rage Against The Machine perfectly blended with a jab of The Darkness, and even a sniff of James Blunt – for reasons known only to themselves. Their refreshing and bonkers sound is complemented by the eclectic vocals of Mama Karen, Papa Rob and their backing singers; “The Pappettes”.
